I train to keep my ageing body in some sort of shape,because i enjoy the social interaction and when my young daughter starts bringing boys home, i want to be able to remind them that her dad does martial arts.

What if your daughter grows up to bat for the other team, decides she likes foursomes and brings home three supersized bull-dykes, all of whom train--one in Kudo, one in wrestling and the last a carrying handgunner?

I would just keep my mouth shut,no need to bring any unwanted attention to myself.

Until she starts to dating members of the wrestling team who know Karate to be a joke.

Only if you really think Machida is some Karate-ka doing forms in the middle of Black House and Couture is some wrestler that was straight off the Olympics. Not two well rounded MMA fighters from different camps.

No. Machida is a karateka who trains for the MMA ruleset. Couture was a grappler training for the same ruleset. Machida put Couture away with a textbook jodan maegeri, a Karate move that is allowed under the MMA ruleset, just like a number of moves from other MAs, such as omoplatas and RNCs, are allowed in the MMA ruleset.
